treep, do games w What are some good games to play while sick?

The last time I got really fucking sick and had to stay off work for two weeks I played a lot of “Sticky Business”.

You design and sell stickers. Its cute, chill, wholesome, scratches my creative itch, and is just distracting enough for all the being-sick stuff going on, but not so complicated as to trigger a headache.

On that note, there was a site called ninja something as I recall about 10 years ago or so that I liked that would review and recommend indie games. I couldn’t find it recently. Anyone maybe knows or remembers what I am talking about?

Recently this channel came up in my feed. There’s a few like this, that will highlight interesting games on Steam that haven’t had much attention.

tripleiris@peertube.wtf on Peertube covers indie games. They made a video of indie gems over the summer sale and the ones I tried were great.

Peans. Not quite peas, not quite beans, but something special, in betweens

Peans is a dessert.

rmuk,

Too meta.

Kitfox games has a YouTube channel where they show off a bunch of their current and upcoming games. Often videos by the developer themselves.

I don’t have a more general type site.

“Northern Englishest”

As a Yorkshire lass living in Manchester, you have me intrigued with this description. Hell, I’m more than intrigued — you’ve sold me on it

macncheese,

Oh you’ve got to play it! Then report back and let me know how it went. I guess the folks that made it are from Barnsley. This means nothing to me as a foreigner, but this game charmed the pants off me.

AnarchistArtificer,

Ooh, Barnsley! That’s actually super close to where I hail from (we had a Barnsley phone number and post code, despite not technically being in Barnsley). That’s so cool, it’s not the kind of place you typically see depicted in media

SUPERJUMP is nonprofit, and they cover a lot of indie games.

Agent_Karyo,

This looks cool! Thanks for sharing.

I’ll shill up for skill up’s website that spun up from his ‘This Week in Gaming’. He has some great coverage on indie games and always dedicates a segment to ‘put this on your radar’.

Paul Tassi from Forbes also has some really good takes and sources in the industry for those AAA games.

I think you might have misjudged when LCDs became common as by the end of 2004, when Halo 2 released, LCD TVs were already a reasonable fraction of new TV sales, and in parts of the world, it was only a few months later that LCD TVs became the majority. For PC monitors, the switch came earlier, so it was clear CRTs were on the way out while the game was being developed. If they hadn’t expected a significant number of players to use an LCD and tweaked the game as much as necessary to ensure that was fine, it would have been foolish

It’s entirely possible. I was just basing the guess it was designed with CRTs in mind because growing up, everyone my age still had a CRT until around 2008/2009, which we then replaced it with Plasma TVs. So it’s entirely possible my assumption is biased or skewed

Obviously, most people don’t replace their TV every year, so it was years after new sales were mostly LCDs that most people had LCDs, but companies making content like to be sure it looks good with the latest screens.

Very fun game

fartographer, do games w Do we have No Man's Sky fans here?

No, I’m not a No Man’s Sky fan. I’m a recovering No Man’s Sky addict. If retirement exists in the future, I hope this game still exists, cuz I’m gonna ruin whatever remains of my life with it.
